El Rocoto Peruvian Restaurant - Utah

Completely delicious food and generous portions! I came with a couple of friends and we had the rotisserie chicken, the ceviche mix and the beef and veggies. The chicken was, in a word, perfect. So tender and flavorfull. The beef and veggies were great as well, but the ceviche was my favorite. Fish, squid, scallops and shrimp all done up in lime and flavorfull as all get out. I highly recommend it. The tres leches was a perfect finisher and super tasty.

Very clean, fantastic service, the food is outstanding. I feel the food is a bit pricey, but it's not enough to keep me away. I would visit more frequently if it were a few bucks less per plate. The presentation of the food is always excellent. The combination platter blows me away every time. I love it! It would be five stars with just a touch friendlier prices. A co-worker and I visit here fairly often. Yesterday, when we visited, the server asked us if she could bring us a treat. She brought us out this incredible soup that you say in the Square Bowl in one of the pictures. It was fantastic! She said we're giving you this because we appreciate your continued business! Who does that? These guys are awesome!

I originally had a 5 star from a few years ago. We just went this past weekend and it was ok. I mean you could eat the food but the anticucho was very hard and you could tell it was most likely reheated, when ordering we asked how many pieces come on a plate and she told us 9. When we got it there were 6. We asked and she said well these are big prices, nothing more. The papa a la huancaina didn’t taste quite right, it almost tasted like they put chicken bouillon in it. The lomo Saltado was not fresh. Also we took some friends who have never had Peruvian food and we were showing them what each item was on other people’s tables. The lomo they brought out before ours you could see was fresh and lots lots more than what we received. When you make lomo it shouldn’t soak up the juices like in the onion or potatoes and ours was way too doused in soy sauce. The pollo a la braza was good not great like I have had at other places, and the green aji was way way too salty. I mean to the point where you couldn’t even eat it, it was too salty. The Jalea was good but it usually has cancha with it. We mentioned these things to the waitress and she just shrugged and said ok. Nothing. The service this time was not great. I don’t think I will go here again.

I’ve been to this restaurant a handful of times. It’s a small quaint spot. Service is quick. I’ve only had the lomo saltado. It’s pretty delicious. The choco flan was tasty. The location is easily accessible from bangerter highway. Parking is ample. The facility is clean. They are taking great measures to protect everyone involved during this Covid pandemic situation.

I am no expert on Peruvian food but my wife and my oldest son and myself just had one of the best meals of our lives on Sunday the flavor was remarkable the restaurant was full and we were the only gringos in the place and my son said if they all like it then we will too and he was right it was delicious. The food was quick and the waitress was attentive. To sum it all up I’ll just say wow.

Two stars for the service. It was only one server and she was running all over and basically my two stars goes for her hard work. Food was ok, I was expecting for more. Great menu selection, but doesn’t taste as it looks on pics. Sea food didn’t taste as fresh as they charge for it. I love Peruvian dishes and know how delicious it can taste. Will not try it again.

We went there to celebrate my birthday. The lady was nice and took our order and made us pay upfront instead of the end of the meal. We never got our receipt. By the time food was ready she told us to not forget to pick up our food ourselves, she put it in a to go box when we were dining in... we had to grab our utensils from an empty table and cups ourselves and nobody checked on us. anyways it would had been nice to be welcomed and invited to seat down and get our order taken like everybody else at the table or any restaurant. The ceviche tasted different from what I remembered the first time (no as good...) and I bit something in the ceviche that I had to wait until I got home to get it out of my tooth, I might need to go to the dentist if it is still hurting or gets infected bc I believe there is another piece of it that I couldnt get out and it is bothering me ... I'll share the picture. There is no trash cans other than in the bathroom... the bathroom wasn't clean... Overall, the experience wasn't as good as the first time.
